    @kenshirobones I had this issue back when i played Overwatch on Ps4... most matches just had unintelligible shouting and blaming. I turn voice chat off on all my multiplayer FPS games.

  • ItsOzwald Ozwald (@ItsOzwald) reported

    sometimes I don't think that I am that big of an Overwatch fan, and as I had that thought at my computer with OW wallpapers, watching the #OWEC on twitch, while wearing a OW shirt, wearing my apple watch with custom dynamic OW wallpapers; I think that maybe I have a problem

  • way2l8te Drakkoir Thompson (@way2l8te) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Please fix your servers! Won the first round on Dorado then got disconnected…. I love playing your game but this is ridiculous! #Overwatch Does this happen in console only?

  • MiloOrka skylanders fan account (@MiloOrka) reported

    @LAGladiators I play overwatch because my brain is not working at the moment

  • Reiner_OW Reiner (@Reiner_OW) reported

    Sometimes i just wanan go fast on wrecking wheel but sadly Blizzard in infinite wisdom has sadly implemented SPEED LIMITS in overwatch in the case of brig bash, and outright ******* stoppage of moving vehicels in teh case of Orisa pull VERY DRIVER UNFRIENDLY META! WE NEED FIX!!

  • ZHollowayyy Z /\ K (@ZHollowayyy) reported

    Somebody at @Blizzard_Ent please ******* fix the PS5 @OverwatchEU menu glitch. It’s becoming farcical that it’s been over 7 months and they’ve still not fixed it #overwatch #blizzard #microsoft

  • MikeDaLGND MIKE 🤪 (@MikeDaLGND) reported

    @QuakeNBake7 Do you think it makes financial sense to spend $70B and NOT continue to launch your incredibly popular games on other platforms? Crash, Spyro, Diablo, Overwatch, these games are all incredibly popular and lucrative on PS. Why would they want to lose out on that profit?

  • McBiryaani juicer (@McBiryaani) reported

    @agentrooster @The_Socko @infrarogue89 what sony games do you play regularly? xbox got halo, gears, sea of thieves, minecraft, roblox age of empires and flight simulator as big live service games. Soon cod and overwatch and hopefully wow port will be added to gamepass. What has sony got for an avg gamer?

  • MikeDaLGND MIKE 🤪 (@MikeDaLGND) reported

    @QuakeNBake7 Alright, the money's on the table. If the next iteration of Crash, Spyro, Diablo, Overwatch, of Tony Hawk goes exclusive, I deadass will Venmo you $100. Deal or no deal?

  • MikeDaLGND MIKE 🤪 (@MikeDaLGND) reported

    @QuakeNBake7 The answer is: because the Minecraft IP is a cultural phenomenon that sells extremely well and is profitable from all platforms. The same applies to Crash, Spyro, Overwatch, Diablo, Tony Hawk, and of course Call of Duty.

  • QuakeNBake7 The Great Exposer (@QuakeNBake7) reported

    @MikeDaLGND Big service games like COD and Overwatch make sense to stay multiplatform because they make recurring revenue from existing fanbases on multiple platforms SP games make no sense to be multiplat because they bring people into Xbox and MS doesn't make much off selling them

  • Duuork ׄ (@Duuork) reported

    @LAGladiators I play Overwatch because I have a lot of time to get back to the first period of the course but I have been working on the same issue with the client at the moment.

  • MissStoneyyXbox Miss Stoneyy (@MissStoneyyXbox) reported

    Can't play Fortnite, Overwatch, or Gta without losing connection and lagging out of the game. My internet is still connected so I'm not sure what's going on. Storm incoming maybe?

  • adovahkitty adovahkitty (@adovahkitty) reported

    @LAGladiators I play overwatch because of my heart problems with the people who I don’t want anymore and they hate you and me and being in my bad self esteem and I’m so sad and that is why I’m scared OK AUTOCOMPLETE LMAOOO

  • APMechler Mirikino (@APMechler) reported

    @FreddyForgiato @SweetPeachGames The problem with that is that there’s a lot of ****** games, there’s a reason why I still play old stale games like overwatch, never saw Skyrim/other classic rpgs need to be difficult to be fun. how hard is it tho??? Out of curiosity
